Panda Hobby shows box art of their upcoming HMEE-1 High Mobility Engineer Excavator kit. Check it out!

PH-35041 - HMEE-1 High Mobility Engineer Excavator

News of this kit have been around a while, but the box art image just appeared on Facebook.

The High-Mobility Engineer Excavator Type I (HMEE-I) is a backhoe loader developed by JCB. The vehicle can carry a two-man crew and was specifically developed for the US military, to replace its small emplacement excavator.

The HMEE-I can be used to clear roads, lay power lines and create obstacles to hinder enemy forces.

What would "all anti IED equipment" be? I have only seen it with additional bar armor to defeat RPGs.

Sorry, haven't got the faintest idea. I served one year at I2 (infantry) back in 85-86 and I haven't been close to an engineer regiment for the last 12 years .... Google to the rescue: LINK / Robin

[/quote] Yes That's what I meant, sorry for wrong terms. But antennas on the roof are counter IED system, aren't they ?

You mean the bar/board in front of the backhoe? Must be some kind of Britsh Army jammer.

The German Bundeswehr uses some as well : https://www.scalenews.de/jcb-hmee-high-mobility-engineer-excavator-walkaround-60/ H.P.[/quote] Bundeswehr Geschützter Baggerlader has 7 cameras allround and no less then 20 warning/caution signs.
